EDM #142 Draw Something Hot

The EDM Challenge #142 is to draw something hot. So, I decided to combine two of my favorite hot things: coffee and Hawaii.

It's been gray, foggy, and cold here in Portland, Oregon. It's no accident that folks in the Northwest are coffee addicts....we use it to self-medicate when the sun disappears for months at a time and the rain soaks through everything. And now that we had to change our clocks back, it gets dark sooooo early.

So, I turn to coffee and memories of Hawaii! This is one of my favorite mugs from Maui. It's tall and narrow.

You must think of Hawaii the way I think of Bali. It's been raining here for days & supposed to rain till Sunday. I don't have a coffee mug from Bali but I have the scents & sounds. Time for them I think. Love your drawing style. Looked at all of them. Particularly liked the plastic bottle with the pink & green.

About Me

I began this blog in 2006 after my sister, "The Old Bag", showed me how. My blog is about nothing, really. Just stuff I do, think, observe, draw, or find humorous. I work in student services at a large college and need a diversion. The pseudonym "Emma Pod" originated in 2005 from an ongoing joke with a co-worker about being "drones" and "pods" at work. (For more on Pod People, see "Invasion of the Body Snatchers")
